Capabilities in other nations have matured, resulting in highly competitive products. The RAND survey described here suggests that there is a need for timely, unbiased, global, and easily accessible ISTI, that government collection and analysis of that information are and will continue to be important government roles, and that this need is likely to grow. Expanding the government's mission here would greatly enhance and update the services provided to all users. Possible improvements include providing a global overview, adding economic and trade information, encouraging networking of information and resources, and increasing the number of quick responses and person-to-person interactions. Many of these improvements can, in fact, take advantage of the globalization of industry, the information revolution, and dispersed scientific excellence. The effective features of existing services, combined with new information tools and opportunities, can be incorporated to build the next generation of ISTI services. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Science|zUnited States|xInformation services|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010112272|xEvaluation. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00005674 650 0 Technology|zUnited States|xInformation services|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009102968|xEvaluation. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00005674 650 0 Government information agencies|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh97007496|zUnited States|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781|xEvaluation. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00005674 650 7 Science.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1108176 650 7 Information services.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 972696 650 7 Evaluation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/916975 650 7 Technology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1145078 650 7 Government information agencies.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/945383 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Yezril, Allison.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n99047115 776 08 |iPrint version:|aWagner, Caroline S.|tGlobal science & technology information.|dSanta Monica, CA : Science and Technology Policy Institute, RAND, 1999|z0833027557|w(DLC) 99038209|w(OCoLC)41871449 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=20507|zOnline eBook.
